Exactly. I don't mind the fancy stuff, I just don't want it to distract from the driving experience. And BMW doesn't even have to make the LSD standard, but at least give it as an option that can be purchased easily and doesn't have to be specifically ordered by the dealer. However, the new M-performance models should have the LSD standard. I can't imagine driving the M235i, especially in the wet, without a LSD.
